I still haven't made any more blocks but I may have stayed up until 1 am quilting the bargello block.

I really like the quilting on this one, @Bjay .  It makes me think of Easter Sunday.

My checkerboard. I just realised it's the same quilt pattern as the bargello. I wish I could manage to take a square photo. Mine are always skewed.

Ooopss!!

Oh Dear Ive gone massively off Piste with Mays Bargello block ...

Unhappy with my original which would have been fine as part of a quilt but was too clunky for a 12" block I made another which came in at 15" x 13" for some reason. This was the last block to be quilted and I was reasonably pleased with the result but how do I choose which bits of the block to trim away to get down to my 12 1/2" square required ....

So this is the original and the new

and this is where I had a bit of a 'moment'
